I’ve attached what I’m using now, with a little documentation.  You are welcome 
to add it to your LilyDev repository.  It is based on Ubuntu 18.04 with GCC 8 
and takes Guile 1.6 from Ubuntu 16.04.  

There are the following TODOs, caveats, and observations.

GCC 8 spews warnings like a fire hose.

I know that the script to update snippets sourced from the LSR was not written 
with a read-only source directory in mind.  It might work as designed if the 
source directory were mounted with full access, but I haven’t tested it yet.  
There is a chance it will still not work because the source and build 
directories are separate.

The time zone in the container is UTC.  It’s not a major problem, but local 
time would be more comfortable.

I would have liked to omit git, but test-related makefile targets run it.

I omitted the curl package because I saw no need for it.

I omitted the following font packages.  The build succeeded, but I don’t know 
if there’s more to be concerned about than that.

  • emacs-intl-fonts
  • xfonts-intl-arabic
  • xfonts-intl-asian
  • xfonts-intl-chinese
  • xfonts-intl-chinese-big
  • xfonts-intl-european
  • xfonts-intl-japanese
  • xfonts-intl-japanese-big
  • xfonts-intl-phonetic

I added the fonts-urw-base35 package.  I thought that that might fix the last 
remaining warning that configure produces, which is about OTF files, but it 
didn’t.  I haven’t educated myself enough to understand the situation.
